Return of the Mordo

The truth is never as important as the way it is perceived.

On the Pathetic Nature of Oversensitive People

May 19, 2009

You’ve all probaly seen the video of Alec Baldwin casually making a joke about getting a mail order bride from the Philippines. If not, here it is:

I dunno about you but I LOLed. Not much. But yeah, I thought it was funny. 

Well apparently, Senator Bong Revilla didn’t. His reaction: 

“Alec Baldwin’s recent statement that he is thinking about getting a mail-order bride from the Philippines is truly insensitive and uncalled for. For him, it is funny but to the millions of Filipinos, it is mockery. Bad joke, not worth laughing.”

“Kung pagbabatayan natin ang pagiging arogante ni Alec Baldwin, kahit sino pa ang magiging bride nito, malamang na mamalasin. Subukan niyang pumunta dito sa Pilipinas nang maghalo ang balat sa tinalupan.”

Wow. Very classy Mr. senator. Thank you for taking it upon yourself to play the indignant protector. Thank you for making us look like a country of pathetic, oversensitive people devoid of a sense of humor.

About Me

Hi. I'm Peter "The Mordo" Juan, and I have a natural affinity for water. Needless to say, I love the ocean and I'm crazy about the beach! Just give me sand, surf and beautiful weather and I'm happy as a clam.

I'm a frustrated writer, an amateur photographer, a wannabe surfer and washed up fencer. I'm a hard worker, a good friend, a loving husband and a business mogul in training (mwehehehe).

I believe that normalcy is boring but I accept that it is a necessary evil. I believe that friendship is stronger than distance, that fact is stranger than fiction and that imagination is more powerful than knowledge. I believe that happiness is, more than anything else, a choice. And as cheesy as it may sound, I still believe that love conquers all.
